YesAccessible! Purpose and Philosphy
YesAccessible!is devoted to providing the blind and visually impaired with software that will enable them to use computer applications just as well as their sighted peers. From "Learn to Type programs" like TypeAbility, to music software, like CakeTalking, YesAccessible! software will make working in a computer environment as easy, enjoyable and as productive as possible.
David Pinto, founder of YesAccessible!, has spent his teaching and programming career making sure that students are never left in the dark, that instructions are always complete yet easy to understand, and that a graduated approach to learning is provided that never ever requires knowledge or skills that have not been thoroughly introduced earlier.
And humor? Yes! Because without humor, things get dry indeed, but with a timely and appropriate dash of humor......tasks can be a joy.

Note that TypeAbilityfor JAWS requires at least JAWS 6, and will run on any JAWS version higher than JAWS 6.
